Reflecting on Cairo and Cottbus World Cups

Elevien’s Video and Result Book feature has already been used numerous times in small and mid-sized competitions, but Elevien and FIG jointly implementing it in two international gymnastics competitions of the highest level was a groundbreaking initiative and a true test of this different viewing experience.

After the FIG World Cup Cairo as the inaugural international gymnastics meet and the FIG World Cup Cottbus closely following, the Video and Result Book was a resounding success: 61,000 viewers from 50 countries worldwide dove into the action in the Elevien app to watch and share individual routine videos and their respective scores. Fans enjoyed their favourite gymnasts’ qualification routines, watching for a combined total of over 18,000 hours.

Beyond the numbers, the feedback from the gymnastics community on both international meets was overwhelmingly positive. Many viewers preferred an on-demand format that enables them to watch just the routines they want, including gymnasts and coaches who logged on to review their routines and compare them to the others.

The Video and Result Books of all Qualifications will remain available free of charge for gymnastics fans to rewatch and share long after the competitions are done.

Conclusion
